For all of you, who want to start neovim, or just started (nyself included) than kickstart.nvim is a great start: https://github.com/nvim-lua/kickstart.nvim
And use
vimtutor
I tend to recommend people use the vim plugin for whatever editor or IDE they currently use, with a key combo to enable and disable it. That way there are no big surprises and it still works the way you're used to - Just with different keyboard controls. And if there's something you can't figure out an easy way to do with vim, write down a note somewhere of that thing to research how to do that later.
Seems like a solid approach. I went full send pure nvim for 3 weeks to get over the hump. No config changes or plugins.
This is what i did, started using vim motions in pycharm. I use nvm for small edits, but plan to make it my daily driver soon.
I've used nvim as my primary IDE for almost a year at this point and it has revolutionized my workflows in such a crazy way. It feels like I'm editing code at the speed of thought, with the combination of text objects and vim-surround
